Abstract: An implant, in particular for supporting the spinal column, the height of which implant can be adjusted by rotating, about an axial axis, a drive part which is supported axially with respect to a first support part and which is provided with: an external thread that interacts with an internal thread of a second support part that is axially movable with respect to the first support part but cannot be moved rotationally; and, on the axial side thereof facing the first support part, toothing that is accessible through an access that leads radially through the first support part. The implant includes a support region of the support of the drive part, the support region being located azimuthally in the region of the access and in particular radially further inwards than the toothing.
